Interface ConnectorEnd

All Superinterfaces:

Element, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EModelElement, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject, MultiplicityElement, org.eclipse.emf.common.notify.Notifier

public interface ConnectorEnd
extends MultiplicityElement

A representation of the model object 'Connector End'. A connector end is an endpoint of a connector, which attaches the connector to a connectable element. Each connector end is part of one connector.

The following features are supported:

• Defining End
• Role
• Part With Port

See Also:

UMLPackage.getConnectorEnd()

Method Summary

Property	getDefiningEnd() Returns the value of the 'Defining End' reference
Property	getPartWithPort() Returns the value of the 'Part With Port' reference
ConnectableElement	getRole() Returns the value of the 'Role' reference
void	setPartWithPort(Property value) Sets the value of the 'Part With Port' reference
void	setRole(ConnectableElement value) Sets the value of the 'Role' reference
boolean	validateMultiplicity(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics, java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context) The multiplicity of the connector end may not be more general than the multiplicity of the association typing the owning connector.
boolean	validatePartWithPortEmpty(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics, java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context) If a connector end is attached to a port of the containing classifier, partWithPort will be empty.
boolean	validateRoleAndPartWithPort(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics, java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context) If a connector end references both a role and a partWithPort, then the role must be a port that is defined by the type of the partWithPort.
boolean	validateSelfPartWithPort(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics, java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context) The property held in self.partWithPort must not be a Port.

Method Detail

getDefiningEnd

Property getDefiningEnd()

Returns the value of the 'Defining End' reference. A derived association referencing the corresponding association end on the association which types the connector owing this connector end. This association is derived by selecting the association end at the same place in the ordering of association ends as this connector end.

Returns:

the value of the 'Defining End' reference.

See Also:

UMLPackage.getConnectorEnd_DefiningEnd()

getPartWithPort

Property getPartWithPort()

Returns the value of the 'Part With Port' reference. Indicates the role of the internal structure of a classifier with the port to which the connector end is attached.

Returns:

the value of the 'Part With Port' reference.

See Also:

setPartWithPort(Property), UMLPackage.getConnectorEnd_PartWithPort()

setPartWithPort

void setPartWithPort(Property value)

Sets the value of the 'Part With Port' reference.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Part With Port' reference.

See Also:

getPartWithPort()

getRole

ConnectableElement getRole()

Returns the value of the 'Role' reference. The connectable element attached at this connector end. When an instance of the containing classifier is created, a link may (depending on the multiplicities) be created to an instance of the classifier that types this connectable element.

Returns:

the value of the 'Role' reference.

See Also:

setRole(ConnectableElement), UMLPackage.getConnectorEnd_Role()

setRole

void setRole(ConnectableElement value)

Sets the value of the 'Role' reference.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Role' reference.

getRole()

validateMultiplicity

boolean validateMultiplicity(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                             java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)

The multiplicity of the connector end may not be more general than the multiplicity of the association typing the owning connector. true

Parameters:

diagnostics - The chain of diagnostics to which problems are to be appended.

context - The cache of context-specific information.

validatePartWithPortEmpty

boolean validatePartWithPortEmpty(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                                  java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)

If a connector end is attached to a port of the containing classifier, partWithPort will be empty. true

Parameters:

diagnostics - The chain of diagnostics to which problems are to be appended.

context - The cache of context-specific information.

validateRoleAndPartWithPort

boolean validateRoleAndPartWithPort(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                                    java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)

If a connector end references both a role and a partWithPort, then the role must be a port that is defined by the type of the partWithPort. true

Parameters:
